The Misnomer Loss

THE MISNOMER LOSS What is loss? Loose your keys? Your manager now has less employees? or is it cruelly cross, like a fatal disease? Did your child die while visible to your eye? Is justice for you nigh? Did a flood wipe it all away, too sudden to even ask why? We need a much better word for these, for losses like these are tragedies. Not a bank error, oh please! Rather it's the most painful horror, and not like missing keys. There is no word that describes the pain and suffering of a dead son. You can't save him; but you get proscribes, and when it is done - you are not the only one, among few knowing loss describes not demise. Nor other suffering that applies to loss, which lies.
